I got a shipment of Meyer's Adopt Me Bargain chicks and a handful of them have left me stumped. This is my first time ordering through them so I'm familiar with all the breeds. They're almost 7 weeks. I have some guesses but could really use some other opinions.

Chick #1: Waluigi
My guess was a Steele Egger. She does have a few feathers on her legs, and is bluer in person than in the photos.

Chick #2: Princess Peach
I have no guesses for her.

Chick #3: Teba
It doesn't show up well in photos but she has a fair amount of white spots coming in, so I thought she might be a Swedish Flower.

Chick #4: Piplup
I have no guesses, but she is smaller than everyone in the group so maybe a bantam.

Chick #5: Pidgey
I think she might be a partridge olive egger?

Chick #6: Gothita
I was thinking some kind of olive egger, my mom thinks she's a lakeside egger.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
Oh wow. I didn't know that olive eggers were mixed. Thank you!
Lakeside eggers, Steele eggers, and dozens of others are hatchery name brands for Easter eggers or olive eggers. All of them are mixed breeds.

Often they are bred to look a certain way, so reading the descriptions provided by the hatchery should give you a good idea of what you have. But some are just bred for the color of eggs they're supposed to lay, so it can be tricky.

Your young ones are all beautiful and all are females. They are likely to make good layers, too.
 
My guess as I have a lot of the same chicks.

1. Lakeside edger.
2. Legbar
3. Not sure
4. Not sure
5. Partridge egger
6. Lakeside egger

I love my lakeside leg bars and partridge egger. They are all very friendly.
